"Spurred by a lack of raw bars near their Sunol base, Frances Catano and Joe Tomaszak are opening Cured: Fish Bar in Livermore this fall at 136 Maple Street; both chefs come from notable restaurants (Robin, Rintaro, ICHI Sushi, Ototo), and they describe the concept as a 'raw bar' that aims to 'open up the conversation that not all raw fish is actually raw but cured,' using techniques like salt preservation, aging, and other curing methods that Chef Joe has been learning in the sushi world." - Dianne de Guzman
